Alexandria Herald: There is piece
of land in this county upon which the
original claimant lived and upon which
he has not yet proved up. Yet there is
a patent recorded and on that record
the land has been mortgaged. Inves-
tigation shows that the patent bearing
corresponding number was originally
issued on a quarter in Turner county
and that the range must have been
erased and that of SO substituted. 1t is
a new and novel fraud and just how
far that sort of thing has been carried
on can not be ascertained. But if it
has been practiced it will lead to no
end of trouble for loan companies.
After patent of this kind has been
recorded it's destruction would remove
all proof of forgery.

CALLAN AND HARKINS.

Precautions Against Rescue OF Escape-The
Prisoners Remanded for One Week.
special TO the Indianapolis J"urnsa.
LONDON, Nov 2S.-The evidence taken in the
Bow-street Polics Court in the case OF the al
legged dyuamiters. Callan and Harkins, confirms
the suspicious of the police that they were con-
nected with the plot to commit dynamite out
RACES during the week OF the Qneens jubilee.
The Importance which the authorities attach to
the case is abundantly shown by the enormi,y
of the precautions taken by the police in guard
ing the prisoners. who, in being conveyed to the
court and back to the Holloway Jail. were drawn
in a surrounded by a guard fully armed and
carrying drawn ssbres, and filled with policemen
equally well provided with means of preventing
escape In addition to the detail of constables,
riding inside the with the prisoners, the tor
OF the vehicle was occupied with half dozen
''bobhies' of formi dabe ASPECT. and. thus guard
ed, the unluckv men wore hurried from Jail TO
court and bacE again. The procee edings were
conducted with great secrecy, notice having
been given at early hour that the public
would not be admitted but a great crowd con-
greeated about the building and employed every
species OF argument to convince the officials
that they entitled to admttance but with
ont avail The hearing of the prisoners /
pected TO develop exceedingly interesting revela-
tions. but detection in disclosing tbs proceed
ings involves certain punishment for contempt
il is probable that the details will be slow in
reaching the public. The examination resulted
in the men being reinanded for week.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-Ju6ge David Turrie,

not being seated, because he held the certih-
cate Of election. A member of the Senate

It has been the rule of the Senate for very many
years to refer to the committee all certificates OF

He does not understand that Turpie's certificate
contains these signatures, making a complete
official record Of the action Of the Legislature,
and that therefore il must be examined by the
Senate committee, when, at the same time, the
circumstances attending the election of and the

PARKER'S BEECHER EUL0GY.
The Englishman Received 500 for His Work,
and 1t Appears lie Didn't Earn the Money.

NEW YORK, Nov. 28.-The Hon. S. Y. White
has written a letter on the DR.. Parker Bsecher
eulogy scandal. He closes the letter follows:
Il hear that DR.. Parker is engaged to preach,
on Dec. f. in Plymouth pulpit If tie fact is
demonstrated, before that time, that DR.. Parker
received fee of the receipts for that eulo-
gy, predict that Plymouth pulpit will, that
day be too hot to hold him. at least that if
will look out a congregation so frigid that the
contrast will suggest the respective temperatures
of Dives and Lazarus on memorable OCCASION"
The following dispatch from the English cler-
gyrnan, dated from Chicago was received by the
Herald yesterday afternoon:
To deliver the eulogy at Brooklyn paid for
ak thousand miles of travel, euspended my
usual work in London for five weeks. paid for
the supply of my pulpit during an absence of
five Sundays. and Cor the whole time work and
EXPENSE 1 received neither more nor less than
s7o0. JOSEPH PARKER"
The Brooklyn Eagle says commenting on the
above letter. that in gives the impression that
Mr.. Parker came here for the purpose OF deliv-
ering the euogv. whereas ths fact is that he
came here to lecture, in pursuance of a contract
made with Major Pond while Mr.. Beecher
still alive, and that it was after his arrival that
Major Pond proposed TO the morument commit
tee that DIR. Parker deliver the eulogv, he
Pond to manage the matter and make free
will Offering of the receipts TO the monument
fund as his own contributor. not sunposine that
for tho delivery. Il seems, according to
the statement of Thomas 6. Shearman, that tho
monument committee had had some correspond
ence with DIR. Parker the subject before he
came; that DR.. Parker asked $500 for his
penses. which sum guaranteed, but the
gotiations fell through. The Eagle points ont
the fact that the Doctor not only TOOK the $500
for unexpsnded expenses. but 5000 basidas,
not to mention a supposed additional $3.50 for
the copyright of the euloRy to a syndicate. Tho
paper adds that DR. Parker's name was sig
nifcanty omitted from the list Of announce.
ments in Plymouth Church yesterday, and hints
that. in be insists on his bargain for next
Sunday, he will be paid the stipulated 500, but
will not be permitted TO preach 1t is said that
ths $500 guaranteed for DR. Pnrkers expenses
will be paid to the monument cormlrtee.

EXPLOSION IN A HOTEL.
One Woman Killed, Second Fatally Injured,
and Many Others Seriously Seelded.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Nov. pa shocking acei-
dent occurred at the Kirby House shortly before
o'clock this morning, boiler used for heating
water exploding entirely wrecking the rear end
of the building. burying a number of people be
meath the ruins. fatally wounding several, and
it is feared, killing others outright. The explo-
sion occurred at $50. The boiler which ex-
ploded was the hot-water boiler behind the
kitchen range. The explosion blew out por-
ton of the rear wall of the building thirty feet
in width, and extending from the ground to the
floor of the fourth story. One end of the din
ing wrecked. all the tables being
knocked over and the dishes smashed. Most of
the guests had finished breakfast. Among those
who remained panic reigned, but as far as known
none of the guests were hurt The kitchen of
the hotel was completely wrecked There were
about dozen girls in the room at the time, and
all were buried beneath the mass of brick and
mortar. The fire department was on the scene
within minute of the explosion. The follow
ing girls were taken out from the ruins badly in
jured: Miss Anna Kennedy, assistant cook;
Miss Carrie Olson, dining room girl; Miss Julia
Fieldmeyer, dining room girl; Miss Nora Dough
erty, dining-room girl; Miss Mary Arbukle. pas
try cook; Miss Maggie Doran. kitchen girl; Miss
Alice Burke pantry girl; Miss Mary Kroeger,
Miss Eva Fredrickson, dining girl.
All were badly injured. mostly by bruises,
that Dr. Marks said he could not tell whether
they would live or not Frank Hempel. the
head cook, is missing: also Mrs e. IL Gage as
sistant cook. The ruins are being searched IN
the hope of finding them, and others who may
be buried therein. Miss Minnie Thompson. a
girl employed in the Sentinel bindery. across the
alley, was badly cut about the head by the flying
glass that was blown in by the explosion. Mr.
Beck with. one of the proprietors of the hotel,
who was in the rear part of the building
where the explosion took place, was hurt in the
head by flying missile, which knocked him
down. He is able to be about
The alley back of the hotel is piled to the
depth of four or five feet with debris from the
wrecked building. The north wall of the dining
room was blown in for distance of fifteen
twenty feet. The firemen got water upon the
ruins in time to extinguish the flames which
started before they had gained much headway.
The accident probably caused by the ffeez-
ing of the feed pipe supplying the boiler with
water. Those whose inj juries are the most
serious are: Mary Arbukle, Anna Kennedy and
Carrie Olson. all of whom terribly burned
in addition to the bruises which they received.
There is no hope that Carrie Olson will recover.
At IL o'clock the iremen found the dead body
of Mrs. L. NJ. Gage, the assistant cook, under
the ruins. 1t was shockingly mangled. Frank
Hempel. the head cook, who was at first report
ed killed, escaped alive, but is badly hurt;
arm and three ribs are broken and he is badly
injured about the head
